He is a year younger than Kawhi. Let him develop a little and get the chance to show something.
If he's out until March, can insurance cover his contract for this season? If so, then there's no financial loss in signing him ASAP anyway.

Because he can't improve after the age of 22?
Nando pls
lol March my ass...throwing it out there to scare other teams into signing him.
I think he'll be ready in January. Patty is an elite athlete, so he'll be ready.
It's all your fault. Like the one poster said, you were creating too many threads about him.
.
his workout routine will suffer ... get well Patty, but do not come back as fatty Patty
Are the spurs now forced to use mle on a pg and let mills go ?
it definitely sucks but I hope Mills remains a Spur. his great energy and instant offense was necessary after last year's heartbreaker. hopefully RC figures something out.
"The Aussie is a free agent but sources told Stein he's expected to re-sign with the Spurs as the sides have already begun talks on a new deal.
Mills, a second-round draft pick by Portland in 2009, averaged 10.2 points in 18.9 minutes per game for the Spurs in his fourth full season, hitting a career-high 135 3-pointers." He'll be back. Were just gonna have to use more cojo until January
Bad news for Patty, and bad for the Spurs. I'd be glad to see him re-signed at the 6m/2 year with a player option type deal discussed. Patty Mills is a good player, on a different level than Neal. TS% of 59% on decent usage is great, and worth more than the 3m he'd get in this deal.
For the first part of the season, I'd imagine the Spurs will run with CoJo as the primary backup PG, with Anderson playing there in stretches where it's against slower PG's.(Andre Miller, Kirk Hinrich types) or guys who can't shoot, so hanging back is a decent option. Either of them will be in with enough creators for it not to matter (Manu). Can also give a min deal to Marcus Denmon or another depth PG(E'Twan Moore level) to be 3rd string while they wait for Patty to recover. Same caveat applies for that guy as for Joseph: With Manu, Beli and Diaw alongside you, the PG doesn't really need to be a "pure" PG. A small shooter that can frustrate opposing 1's is the job description.
And the shoulder was the towel-waving shoulder too. .
Joseph is two months younger than Kawhi and has had three years with the Spurs to show he could do something, anything at an above average NBA level. He is what he is, a palatable defender and subpar at every other facet of the game. Spurs were in good hands with Patty and Cojo backing up Parker, but with only Cojo, if TP goes down or needs rest we're screwed.
Cory Joseph has had three years to prove he's more than a serviceable third-string PG and he hasn't. That's the end of the story.
Yeah, his career is over.
Tired Manu, Cory Joseph, Marco "negative impact" Belinelli...bench is going to be ugly to watch next year
Yes, exactly. Mills is 25 and the team wants him to be a big part of the future. Pay him fairly (4-5mil/yr) and lock him up for 4 years.
First Nando is missing out on the ship, then on a opportunity to play.
Take care of Patty and hope he can help come playoffs (until then CoJo and maybe even some Anderson experiments will do...maybe some Torros experiments as well)! Then Patty hopefully will take care of the team as it did for him.
Just a bummer that I won't see him play when the Spurs come to Germany in October (did see him with the Australian National team back in 2007 though).
I don't see that. You sign Patty just like you were going to, and CoJo plays backup until he comes back. I don't think we need to sign a backup PG, especially not for the first few months of the season when we just beat up on weak teams and lose to strong ones anyway - he should be back in January.
He was also te primary backup in 2013 and they should've won the ring that year bag.I'm sorry but Cory Joseph got his chance to prove he was a backup PG for 3 years... And all he's proven is he can play well in trash minutes against OKC. Didin't do anything the games Parker sat out and he started.
SIGN TROY DANIELS
This definitely brought his value down so it's time for the Spurs to strike while the iron is hot. 4yr/11m and we locked up a backup guard for nearly half a decade.
Oh come on Bazemore does not suck. Good defensively, athletic as , can hit the 3.
Sign him and a combo of Joseph, Parker, Diaw, sometimes Anderson running the point will work.
What an athlete to play thru in playoffs with that injury .
We know you are
just kidding
